This is in the form of a book sent out to all the Kitamura camera stores in Japan detailing the amount they can offer for trade-ins. This book is revised and published every 3 months. Based on this and the buying guide from Fujiya Cameras the market value seems to be falling quite steadily in Japan. Although the Japanese Leica collectors shops have not reduced their prices at all.
